Course at Rocamadour

Rocamadour Aérostat, created in 1986, brings together twenty or so enthusiasts including 8 pilots who organise pleasure flights throughout the year, see to the maintenance of the club's 3 hot-air balloons, pilot training and participation in the numerous meetings held in France or abroad.

The whole team also constitutes the heart of the working party that organises the big annual balloon meeting in Rocamadour in September, which brings together 25 teams from all over France and neighbouring countries.

Rocamadour Aerostat

The Lot's character is formed by its 'causses' (limestone plateaux) through which the Lot, Dordogne and Célé valleys have carved their way. It is studded with major tourist attractions and beautiful villages such as Rocamadour, Cahors, Figeac and Saint Cirq Lapopie…. Man and Nature have both left their imprint on the Pech Merle cave and Padirac Chasm. When you're rambling or cycling, the unspoiled, authentic nature of the Lot is plain to see. Home to excellent local produce and fine food and wines, the Lot has many treats to offer your taste buds, including truffles, foie gras, lamb and melons from Quercy, and Cahors Malbec Wine.
